Terms of use for templetimings.org
Using this site means accepting what follows. It is short because the site is simple: it publishes information, it sells nothing, it is not connected to any temple, and it is honest about the limits of what it can tell you.
Last updated 1 September 2026What this site is, and what it is not
Most disputes about a site like this come from a misunderstanding of what it claims to be. This section removes that.
We are not the temple
This site is independent of every temple it covers. It has no relationship with any temple, trust, administration or tourism board, receives nothing from them and speaks for none of them. Where a temple publishes something, we carry it, credit it and link to it, and where a temple and this site disagree, the temple is right.
We take no money, ever
Nothing is sold here. No entry, no darshan, no ticket, no queue skip, no tour, no advertising and no affiliate arrangement. Where a temple runs its own paid queue or booking, the page points at the temple's own channel and takes nothing from it.
Anyone charging you through a third-party site to arrange entry to a temple is not connected to that temple or to this one.
Accuracy, and its limits
Every fact on this site is published with the source it came from and the date it was last checked, and nothing is invented to fill a gap. That is the strongest guarantee anyone can honestly give, and it is not the same as a guarantee that a temple will be open when you arrive.
Schedules change for festivals, ritual days, weather and repairs, often without announcement. Use the site to plan and the temple to confirm, and read the date on the page before you rely on the time above it.
Nothing here is religious advice
The site describes practical arrangements: opening hours, dress codes, entry rules, prasad and access. It does not interpret ritual, prescribe practice, rank temples by importance or speak on behalf of any tradition or community.
Using our text
Quote short passages with attribution and a link, freely. Do not republish pages wholesale, and do not lift a schedule while dropping its source and its date, because that qualification is part of the fact and removing it makes the copy misleading.
Photographs and third-party rights
The photographs here are not ours to license. Each is used under an open licence granted by its photographer, with the credit that licence requires. If you want to use one, take it from the original source and follow that licence rather than assuming ours extends to it.
If you believe an image is used wrongly or credited wrongly, write to us and it will be corrected or removed.
Links to other sites
External links go mainly to temples' own pages. Those sites have their own terms, their own privacy practices and their own reliability, none of which we control. A link is a pointer, not an endorsement of anything else on the site it points to.
Availability and changes
This is a small independent site. It can go down, pages can be restructured and content can change as information is rechecked. No guarantee of continuous availability is offered, and these terms may be updated, with the date at the top of the page changing when they are.
To the extent the law allows, this site is provided as it stands and no liability is accepted for a journey, a booking or a cost incurred on the basis of information published here. Every page shows its source and its date so you can judge how far to trust it before you travel.
What people ask about using this site
The questions these terms get asked most, answered in a line or two each.
Are you connected to any of the temples on this site?
No. This is an independent reference site with no relationship to any temple, trust, administration or tourism body. It carries what temples publish, credits them and links to them, and nothing here should be read as coming from a temple itself.
Can I rely on a timing here for a journey?
Treat it as the last verified position rather than a promise. Every schedule carries its source and the date it was checked so you can judge it. Temple hours change for festivals, ritual days, weather and repairs, sometimes at a day's notice, and no site can be ahead of a change nobody announced.
What happens if information here turns out to be wrong?
Tell us and it gets checked against the temple and corrected. What the site cannot do is accept liability for a journey made on information that was accurate when it was checked and had changed by the time you travelled. That risk is why every page shows its date.
Do you sell anything, or take any commission?
No. Nothing is sold, no booking is taken, no commission is earned and no affiliate link appears anywhere. If a site is charging you to arrange temple entry, it is not this one and it is not connected to this one.
Is anything here religious advice?
No. The site describes practical arrangements: when a temple is open, what is enforced at its gate, who may enter and what is offered. It does not interpret ritual, prescribe practice or speak for any tradition.
Can I quote or reuse the text?
Short quotations with attribution and a link are welcome. Wholesale copying of pages is not, and copying a schedule while dropping the source and the date defeats the only thing that made it worth reading.
Can I use the photographs?
Not under our terms, because they are not ours to license. Every photograph here is used under an open licence granted by its photographer. Check the licence on the original and follow it, including its attribution requirement.
Can I link to this site?
Yes, freely, to any page, without asking. Deep links to individual temple pages are welcome and no permission is needed for any kind of link.
What about the sites you link to?
External links point mostly at temples' own pages, and those sites have their own terms, their own privacy practices and their own accuracy. We do not control any of them and cannot answer for what they publish or change.
Can you guarantee the site will always be available?
No. It is a small independent site and it can be down for maintenance, for a host problem or for reasons outside anyone's control. Do not build a plan around it being reachable at a particular moment.
What if a temple objects to something on its page?
Write to us and it will be corrected or removed. A temple's own statement about itself outranks anything else on this site by definition, and there is no interest here in publishing something a temple says is wrong.
Which law applies to these terms?
The site is operated from India and these terms are read under Indian law. Nothing here removes rights you hold under the consumer or data protection law of your own country.
Something here needs correcting?
Corrections from readers and from temples are acted on before anything else. Write and say what is wrong.
